if they don't read him his miranda rights right away, you okay with that? >> well, look. i think the public safety exception is being greatly and overly expanded in this instance. the public safety exception as the supreme court laid out is for an instance when an officer walks up on a situation and sees an empty holster and says where's your gun. that's to prevent an imminent threat from happening right then. what they are doing now is really expanding that public safety exception to say really the fifth amendment applies when they say it does and i don't think the supreme court is going to uphold that down the line. the supreme court actually heard oral argument on a case very similar out of texas last week where their argument was the fifth amendment doesn't apply until we read the miranda rights. so we may have an answer to that sooner than we think. >> christopher -- >> would it make any difference -- i'm sorry, fred. just want a little follow-up. would it make any difference if the u.s. were to revoke his naturalized u.s. citizenship as far as the law is concerned?
